Abstract

Background/objective: The scale for the assessment and rating of ataxia (SARA) is a feasible assessment for the classification and evaluation of therapeutic interventions. In order to provide access to the SARA in German, the aim of this work was to translate the SARA into German and to adapt it according to international guidelines for German-speaking countries.

Method: The process involved six steps. The comprehensibility of the scale was assessed using interviews with potential users.

Results: A total of nine physiotherapists and six physicians working in various clinical settings were interviewed, seven of them worked in Germany and four each in Austria and Switzerland. The interviews led to a refined version of the translation. The comprehensibility testing revealed no country-specific differences.

Conclusion: A German version of the SARA authorized by the co-author of the original publication, is now available. The results provide methodological insights into the translation process of observation-based standardized assessments.

[共济失调评估和评级量表（SARA）：德语地区的翻译和文化适应]。

背景/目的：共济失调的评估和评级量表（SARA）是对治疗干预措施进行分类和评估的可行评估方法。为了提供德语版的共济失调量表，这项工作的目的是将共济失调量表翻译成德语，并根据德语国家的国际准则对其进行调整：方法：翻译过程包括六个步骤。方法：整个过程包括六个步骤，通过与潜在用户进行访谈来评估量表的可理解性：结果：共采访了 9 名物理治疗师和 6 名在不同临床环境中工作的医生，其中 7 人在德国工作，奥地利和瑞士各 4 人。通过访谈，翻译版本得到了改进。通过可理解性测试，发现各国之间并无差异：德文版 SARA 由原著作者授权，现已出版。研究结果为基于观察的标准化评估的翻译过程提供了方法论上的启示。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
